"After becoming aware of the Mining Family Matters guides at a mining expo, we arranged to have some printed with the Orica logo. We distributed them to every Orica operations employee's home address across Australia Pacific. The guides have been really well received - people were extremely grateful for and surprised by the valuable insights. I would strongly recommend the guides and the Mining Family Matters website for everyone who travels for work."

- Yogi Schleemann, Operations Manager Australia/Pacific, Orica

The Survival Guide for Families in Oil & Gas

The Survival Guide for Families in Oil & Gas is based on our hugely successful Survival Guide for Mining Families but also touches on the challenges of working away for more extensive blocks of time (and sometimes with very little phone access). It's a valuable induction tool for companies keen to support employees working in oil and gas, either doing FIFO/DIDO or living in remote areas. The 32-page, A5 booklet is again written by our resident psychologist Angie Willcocks and MiningFM co-creator Alicia Ranford. Read more on The Survival Guide for Families in Oil & Gas.
